Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

It's to sloppify the user and make us more suggestible, so we didn't notice when google² moved our files to the cloud and started automatically editing our photos¹ and scanning everything for plagarism-bot³ to get free content. Its to make you used instead of user.

Everything about the modern ux kind of is.

¹not to influence us for political or advertising reasons. Lol! Dont be silly. Just, you know, for reasons. A little touch up. Maybe merging two pics so you can be in the picture with your friends. Maybe turn this night shot to golden hour. Fix the moon. Change the stars. Change that billboard in the corner. You know; little things.

²google, apple, and Microsoft all do this to some extent. Present tense. Happened last year.

³totally not anything else. Totally separate from our voluntary collaboration and commercial contracts with intelligence agencies.
